For this week’s educators chat, we tweeted, live blogged and pulled in a video stream from the annual Poynter/Kent State University media ethics workshop.
Throughout the day, media professionals from print, broadcast and online came together with Poynter’s Kelly McBride, Ellyn Angelotti and Bob Steele to look critically at journalism ethics issues.
The goal of the workshop, which I coordinated as an assistant professor at Kent State University, was to address media ethics issues and offer practical advice for full-time journalists, educators and students. The workshop focused on values in online journalism, online media ethics and what inspires innovative news operations.
In addition to McBride, Steele and Angelotti, the workshop’s featured speakers included Drew Curtis, founder and administrator of Fark.com; Josh Marshall, editor and publisher of Talking Points Memo; and Kelly Golnoush-Niknejad, founder and editor-in-chief of tehranbureau.com, an independent online magazine about Iran and the Iranian diaspora.
You can revisit this link at any time to replay the chat after it has ended.
